2. Take to the streets for a mobile Pokemon Go party
For Pokemon party ideas that you can take on the go, take your team outside for a Pokemon Go-themed party. You can breathe in the fresh air and walk to your neighborhood’s Pokestops, catching Pokemon while battling your friends.
For an added challenge, have the whole group work together to also take over a local fitness class for your team! After you’ve claimed your victory, you can celebrate by having dinner with the whole party at your favorite restaurant.
3. Face off with your guests in a Pokemon tournament
For party hosts who love a little healthy competition, then our next Pokemon party idea is perfect for you. Have your guests bring their Nintendo Switches and host an elimination-style tournament in Pokemon Sword and Shield or any other Pokemon game you prefer.
To make things more interesting, try offering an epic prize for the winner, like a special piece of merch. A high-stakes winner-take-all tournament is an epic way to get the party going!
Make it even more special by hosting your event at a Peerspace retreat venue, like this glam Moroccan retreat home in Las Vegas pictured above. It’s an exotic three-bedroom home with a kitchen, dining room, and game room. Plus, you can enjoy the spacious backyard complete with a fun pool.
